Baths of Licinius Sura

The Baths of Licinius Sura or Thermae Suranae were an ancient Roman bath complex built by Lucius Licinius Sura on the Aventine Hill (Regio XIII) in Rome. It was restored during the short reign of Gordian III. The baths were damaged during the 410 sack of Rome by Alaric I, and again restored in 414. The baths probably served a more affluent community than the Baths of Caracalla, but were smaller and probably more elegant.
